Muay Thai Classes in Redruth

Authentic Thai boxing moments from Redruth — beginners welcome

WAKT Muay Thai is based in Pool at KRH on Highburrow Lane — only a couple of minutes from Redruth town centre. Many Redruth students choose WAKT because they want proper Muay Thai coaching, not just fitness kickboxing or boxing circuits. Our sessions suit complete beginners, experienced strikers and anyone wanting a friendly but focused martial arts environment.

Your local Muay Thai gym — right on the Redruth border

WAKT Muay Thai is located at Kernow Resilience Hub, Highburrow Lane, Pool, TR15 3BU, opposite Booker Cash and Carry. If you live in Redruth, Illogan, North Country, Paynters Lane End or Lanner, you can reach the gym extremely quickly — often faster than getting across Redruth itself during busy times.

There is plenty of free parking outside the gym, making it easy to train before or after work. To see which days suit you best, you can view our timetable here.

Common questions

Do I need any experience?

No. Most Redruth students begin with no martial arts background. We teach you from the ground up, step by step.

What should I wear to my first class?

Shorts and a T-shirt are all you need. You’ll train barefoot on the mats, but slides are useful for moving around KRH. If you already have gloves or wraps, bring them — but they’re optional.

We also have a small shop at the gym where you can buy gloves, wraps, shin guards and WAKT kit whenever you're ready.

Is sparring required?

No. Sparring is optional. Most people train for fitness, confidence and learning a new skill — not competing.
